I had similar issue happen in FF when I first opened Spotify to play music it flashed for second the moment I start to play spotify for first time in FF, now mind you never saw any such issue before or since and I have still running 466.11 I dont think has any thing to do with HW acceleration, I think has something to do with copy protection stuff.
I should probably change my driver to new verison but i just cant be bother to do so seeing everything works. with what I still using

this driver hardware acceleration is broken for chrome in windows 11x64

with hardware acceleration disable, dont have problems
Used to get that same exact "effect" with my previous monitor now and then when trying to view TV on my cable company's TV site. Was related to some weird issue with HDCP support of the monitor.
